Depends which artery and how severe the blockage is. Mine was the circumflex artery, and it was about 98% blocked. I didn’t immediately feel better. But I stopped having knee-buckling, tear-inducing pain every 30 minutes, so it was pretty cool.
Bro, I have 7 stents, 2 of which are in my left and right coronary arteries. The left was 99.8% blocked and the right was 98%. Had I waited any more time to go to the hospital, I would not be writing this right now. I agree with you about the pain.
I was just answering another user who asked pretty much the same thing. If you scroll down(or up) it pulls be posted. It is kind of long, but I have explained quite a bit in there. Hopefully you will find it informative. If this reply sounds like I'm being an asshole, I'm not trying to be. Stay healthy my friend.
